Truely, I'm really curious who here subscribes to Washington Post, NY Times, LA Times, Medium etc
Is this really commonplace?
- ekc 7y agoMedium, The New York Times, and Washington Post all have easily circumventable paywalls, though I can't vouch for the other one you listed.
- rolltiide 7y agoIs that really the point? They've started detecting incognito mode and won't show content, all you have to do is just use a completely different browser program like Safari if you normally use Chrome, but its different and changes for every site
- jaredsohn 7y agoYou can also use a different Chrome profile. FYI, Chrome is making changes to make it harder to detect incognito mode. https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2019/07/22/chrome-76-blocks-websites-from-detecting-incognito-mode/ https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2019/07/22/chrome-76-blocks...
- buboard 7y agoThis website asked me to disable my ad blocker, then showed me an ad for their subscription. I guess they follow the footsteps of porn sites again ...
- bootlooped 7y agoI subscribe to two of the sites you listed because it doesn't cost that much and it is more convenient to pay for it than deal with fidgeting with incognito mode, erasing cookies, using a 3rd party site to read, etc...
